Your Mother is a beautiful woman. She has a lot of WONDERFUL MEMORIES. Sure can tell she loves her grand"baby" ❤️
Thank you for the comment my friend: What State do you watch my videos from?
@@theappalachianchannel Alaska, I'm a displaced Ohioan longing for the East !
I'm 67 and my dad raised 4 kids by himself, he would take myself and my younger sister down home to Red Boiling Springs Tenn . I would stay with my granny my sis would stay with Red and Hazles an aunt and uncle. I always wanted to write a book, my life was so full with adventures and work on the farm. I grew up in Detroit the rest of the year , I would not give up the life I was so blessed to have. I feel so sorry for today's youths . I could go on but I love your shows. Keep up the good word. Peace be with you.

I'm watching from southern Missouri. For many years, as a young adult, I rejected rural life, and instead chose city life in southern Calif. But when raising my own children, i chose to return to small-town life in MO. Now I'm retired and living in a log cabin that used to be a church. Two of my kids, now in their 30s, have also chosen to live in cabins, in Montana.

My mom was born in Southern California, but she got tired of big city life and in her 60s, decided to move across the road from her good friend she knew since high school in Raymondville, Missouri. She passed away a few years ago. She was happy there and loved the rural life…
Love hearing from older folks about life. It's invaluable 👍🏼✝️

Your mum is gorgeous. I don’t know why I am so drawn to Appalachian videos. I don’t even fully understand the geography but there is something about the scenery and the people. I understand that the people of Appalachia have had hard times but they always appear to be friendly and accommodating.

Your Moms A Beautiful Ladie!
Your Mom was hot when she was young,she still looks good
Wow, @ Mr. Ward, I just run across your videos today, what a pleasure your sweet mom is! She looks so familiar. You do as well. I absolutely love these videos from the Appalachian. My mom was raised in Clinch More. Julia Faye Wilson Phillips and my dad in New River, Rev. B.Ray Phillips. They both talked of Beech Fork many times as us children of six were growing up. It has become some of my favorite memories since their passing's of about three years ago, three months apart. Again, thanks so much.

😇💜 Your Mom is so SWEET.
I can tell Y'all are a really close family. I laughed when your Mom shared her story about the horse 🐴
LOL 🤭
She can tell some stories too
@@theappalachianchannel I was just thinking when she was telling some of the stories,she tells it just like it is,"warts and all"!!! Lol she didn't try to sound all innocent,she told they fell off the horse cause they sneaked around doing something they shouldn't. Sounded like the way she told it.
Truly enjoyed hearing your Mama tell her stories of yesteryear. Nothing better than taking in historic testimony.
God bless your Mama!!
Sad to see that the state or whoever is letting nature take back over that bridge and wooden water tower. We need to preserve history.
Blessings from The Lakeside of the Smokies 🕉
Yes we do, thank you for watching my videos
You're just down to earth my kind of people ! When I was growing up our air-conditioning was a big old box fan in the window . Awww but I wouldn't trade my memories of growing up for no amount of money.
Awesome stories!
Glad you like them!
